We're having problems with our connection being really slow at the moment (virgin, 10mb connection). Speedtest show it running at 4.6mbs (bearable, as we are only here for another week before we move) but web sites still take 20-30seconds to load, and games are unplayable because we get kicked for having a ping of mid 900s.
Virgin tech help (india ) are worse then useless, so i was wondering if any of you could shed any light? Why do we get speedtest recordings of 2-6mb repeatedly on different sites, but still have problems playing games & with web sites loading?
Just a shot in the dark, but any ideas?
edit: Its a modem connecting straight to the PC there is no router at all. Its worked fine for the last 8 months, just start happening a week ago. I cant think of any software that could cause it but the PC is running vista 64, with AVG & windows firewall. Using both firefox & IE to test.
